Product Description

The 5-1/4" x 18" Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) 2.3E is a high-capacity engineered wood beam designed for maximum stiffness and long-span structural integrity. With a 2.3E Modulus of Elasticity, this beam offers superior resistance to deflection, making it an ideal choice for primary floor girders and heavy-duty headers. The 5-1/4" width is specifically engineered to match the thickness of three plies of standard 2x lumber, providing seamless integration into traditional framing.

Manufactured through a high-pressure bonding process of ultrasonically graded wood veneers, this 18" depth LVL is virtually immune to the natural defects like knots and splits found in solid-sawn timber. Staged for fast loading at our Stockton, California wholesale distribution hub, this 2.3E LVL provides the dimensional stability and predictable strength required for high-end residential and commercial builds.

Specifications
  • Width: 5-1/4" (Triple-ply equivalent)
  • Depth: 18"
  • Grade: 2.3E (High-Density Structural Grade)
  • Material: Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL)
  • Adhesive: Exterior-rated, moisture-resistant structural resins
  • Certification: APA/ICC-ES recognized structural composite lumber
Common Uses
  • Main floor girders for open-concept floor plans requiring massive clear spans and zero mid-span posts
  • Heavy-duty headers for 16' to 20' garage door openings in 2x6 wall construction
  • Primary ridge beams for large-scale vaulted great rooms and custom roof structures
  • Critical transfer beams designed to support multi-story point loads and concentrate weight over foundation piers
Contractor & Builder Notes
  • Triple-Ply Advantage: The 5-1/4" width is designed to replace three 1-3/4" LVLs or 2x lumber plies, eliminating the labor and hardware required for job-site bolting or nailing multiple members together.
  • Flush Framing: Manufactured without camber, this beam provides a perfectly flat bottom chord, making it the professional choice for flush-mount girders where level ceiling drywall is a priority.
  • Callback Prevention: Engineered to resist shrinking, twisting, and warping. This stability ensures that headers stay square and floors remain quiet, preventing common issues like drywall cracking and floor squeaks.
  • Predictable Strength: Every veneer layer is ultrasonically graded to ensure a consistent 2.3E rating throughout. Staged at our Stockton, California wholesale distribution hub for rapid forklift loading and maximum job site efficiency.
